Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford previously presented This Morning on Fridays together for years, before Alison Hammond and Dermott O'Leary took over.
The couple first met in 1997 through a mutual friend and later tied the knot in 2010. The couple, both 63, are proud parents to their son Jack, who turned 21 this year.
He explained: “We have a family plot in Belfast where my mum and dad are and there’s room for four more others. Ruth would rather be somewhere anonymous in Surrey. She wants to be cremated and I don’t want to be cremated. She doesn’t care - she’s not religious, and she’s not interested in sentimentality."
“I want crying. I want incense over my coffin for the Requiem Mass in Belfast in the church where I was baptised. It’s where my mother and father married, it was our parish constituency, it was where life happened for us. He continued: “I would also like a record or an Elvis impersonator to sing as the final song, Bridge Over Troubled Water. I think it is a great song to reflect on. As long as the priest finishes the Mass and we go down the aisle, we can sing it at the end.’’
